I keep singing Row Row Row your boat when that song comes up that I totally miss the lines and have to rewind the scene.. then sing the song again and keep having to repeat the same song in a round each time..

This show is quite emotionally relaxing compared to the roller coaster that Golden Time will probably end up being. Also I think the viewers implying a yuri undertone may need to readjust their radars , I suspect it's more of a hero worship type setup than anything more adult. Remember she's in 5th grade so that would put her at about 10-11 years old, seems that idolization is all that's happening.

I thought Hotaru just saw that Koma was just too adorable even though she is older than Hotaru which adds further to the cuteness factor.

This show is so cute and relaxing! It makes me feel all happy inside =)

This and Gingitsune are technically considered seinen, right? I found that interesting because i'm in love with both and seem to fit squarely within that target demographic. I'm curious just how popular these shows are with the rest of my demographic because they seem like shows adult males wouldn't normally watch. Nevertheless, i'm loving them both (Non Non Biyori especially). This most recent episode made my heart feel like it was filled up with warm sunshine, lol

While not as amazing as the first episode, the show seems to be getting comfortable as the relaxing girls doing cute things to each other show of the season, even with some yuri possibilities or just shy, cute, friendships? We'll find out. I will definitely continue to watch this one though the instant buy feelings I had in the first episode as not as strong now. I will have to see how this one goes.

Nah man its going to totally be an angsty look at the declining birthrate of Japan. They will look at this school, and see pictures of it once being filled with children. They will then look around and see the town filled with the elderly, and realize that the town is dying. Wait, nah guess not, the anime companies that do this aren't making this one huh.

Actually what we'll start to notice is small clues in each episode through which we slowly discover that, in fact, Hotaru was in a terrible accident, and has been sent off to a psychiatric hospital in the country, where she's observed by that "teacher" as she acts out her emotions through two hand-puppets she's named the Koshigaya sisters.
